About this business
Supplying restaurants, hotels, takeaways and contract caterers across Glasgow and the west of Scotland with ambient, chilled and frozen products, this wholesaler owns its depot on an industrial estate. It began in 2022 and has 16 staff. Sales have grown each year from £3.82m to £4.6m, but EBITDA has fallen from £630k to £543k, so the margin is down to about 12%. Food cost inflation and price competition are the likely causes, and a buyer should test both.
Key investment highlights
- Turnover up 20% since 2022
- Freehold depot
- Team of 16
- EBITDA of £543k
Reason for sale
